Nail art has taken the polish world by storm. Who can resist with all the stunning lacquer shades available to us on the market nowadays? I know I have tried my hand at some easy designs - the odd hit, but the odd miss too. Up to now I have not invested in any nail art tools, but I have been rather creative and used things around the house. One fellow blogger "Enigmatic Rambles" was so kind to give me a tip about using the end of a pin for dots. Recently I saw an idea on Pinterest, which I had to test as well.
Here is the product of my creativity yesterday:
I started with a base colour entitled "Abalone Sand" by ASK Cosmetics - 3 coats seen here.
For the first set of dots I used the rounded end of tis brush, the same one I use to remove any polish that is "outside the lines".
The second set of dots in grey were a bit out of control as I was doing this nail art with my left hand and I am usually right dominant. Note to self: do not drink so much coffee before attempting this.
This was the idea I took from Pinterest - by simply sticking a pin in the eraser end of a pencil you have an inexpensive dotting tool. How cool is that!
This is the end product of my dotting adventure. And here is a photo of the shades I chose:
